 I had a little red rooster
 Too lazy to crow 'fore day
 I had a little red rooster
 Too lazy to crow 'fore day
 He kept ev'rything in the barnyard
 Eager settin' a-ready to lay
 You know the dogs begin to bark
 And the, the hounds
 They begin to howl
 You know the dogs they begin to bark
 And the, the hounds
 They begin to howl
 You know my little red rooster's gone
 Know the little red rooster's on the prowl
 (harmonica & instrumental)
 Now, if you see my little red rooster
 Somebody, please drive him home
 Now, if you seen my little red rooster
 Somebody, ple-eee-ase run 'em home
 There ain't been no peace in the barnyard
 Since my little red rooster been gone.
 (piano & instrumental)
